Four Shy, Smiling
DP's Begin New
Life In Valley
Shyly, but with broad smiles,
four displaced persons from East
ern Europe arrived to begin a
new life in the Rogue River val

they completed a journey which
began in European camps, ana

met at the station by their "spon
sors," Ray Baker, manager of
the Meflford J. C. fenney store,
and Attorney O. H. Bengtson.
Speak No English
The Ukranian couple spon
sored by Baker is named Hari
Jenko. The man and his wife
speak no English, and in the ex
citement of their arrival, it was
impossible to determine their
first names. They will work on
Baker's dairy ranch on the Old
Stage road.
The other DP's. a father and
16-year-old daughter, are named
Powlo and Galina Zapolska. and
are from Poland. It is understood
that they are the only survivors
of a family of eight people. They
will assist Bengtson in caring for
his house and grounds.
Arrangements for the care and
transportation of the four refu
gees were completed through the
Church World service, and the
Rev. Harry Hansen, until re
cently pastor of the First Presby
terian church here, assisted in ar
ranging details of their care.
Sponsors Responsible
Bengtson and Baker are re
sponsible for their care for at
least one year, and Baker said
"Of course our moral responsi
bility extends beyond that."
Another DP family will be
coming to the Rogue valley soon,
according to the Rev. George
Shuman of the Ashland Presby
terian church, which is sponsor
ing them. A five-room house on
B street is being prepared, and
clothing, supplies and a job will
be awaiting the family. Word of
their arrival in this country is ex

Meets Officials
While in the capital, Spatz met
with the secretary of the interior,
with Assistant Secretary Girard
Davidson, and the heads of all
the various concerned agencies
within the department. Boehl re
ported, and also met with mem
bers of congressional committees
which will consider the project
when it is finally presented.
"Mr. Spatz found that the sec
retary . . , and his aides were
thoroughly familiar with our
problems and are now doing ev
erything possible to expedite
the project," Boehl said.
'Usual Procedure'
"The basin report is now in
the hands of the interior depart
ment committee . . . and will be
handed back to the secretary
some time in March as a fully
coordinated report. It will then
be forwarded to the governor of
Oregon and to the bureau of the
budget for their approval. This is
the usual procedure through
which all reclamation project re
ports must pass," Boehl's review
continued,
"It is therefore evident that
our project cannot reach . con
gress in time for consideration
at this session, but will be ready
for presentation as a coordinated
report at the beginning of the
next session. This may seem to
be an unnecessary delay, but well
informed persons are confident
that because all parties to the
report will have reached an
agreement, it may actually ex
pedite approval of the project,"
Boehl concluded.
Reports Delayed
It was at first hoped that the
project would be ready for pre

session, But was delayed by un
foreseen developments in prepar

PAIR FOUND GUILTY
ON THREE COUNTS OF
SPYING INDICTMENT
New York, Mar. 7 (UP) A federal court jury
convicted Judith Coplon and Valentin Gubitchev on
three counts of a four count espionage conspiracy in
dictment today.
The jury of six men and six housewives acquitted
Miss Coplon on the second count of the indictment
which charged her with attempting to pass govern
ment secrets to an unauthorized person.
The verdict, read to the court by Jury Foreman
John Hopfer after six hours and 24 minutes of actual
deliberation, was as follows :
First count : Both defendants guilty of conspiracy.
Second count: (Naming Miss Coplon only) inno
cent. Third count': (Charging Gubitchev with attempt
ing to receive and obtain United States secrets) guilty.
Fourth count: (Charging Miss Coplon with at
tempting to pass government secrets to Gubitchev
with the knowledge that they would be used to the
detriment of the United States and to the advantage
of a foreign country) guilty.
Defense Fights In Vain For Mistrial
Because Of Typographical Error '
The verdict was returned at 11:47 a.m. as the defense was
fighting in vain for a mistrial because of a typographical error the
jury found in its copy of the indictment.
Miss Coplon faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison
and a $10,000 fine. Gubitchev's
$20,000 fine $10,000 on each of the first and third counts.
Federal Judge Sylvester Ryan remanded both defendants to
jail immediately and said he would sentence them at 10:30 a.m
Thursday.
The fourth count of the indictment carries a maximum sentence
of 20 years for Miss Coplon. She could have been sentenced to
death in war time.
Already Under Sentence '
Miss Coplon already is under sentence of 40 months to 10
years in Washington for stealing government secrets.
Gubitchev's attorney, Abraham Pomerantz, told rcportersfol
lowing the adjournment of court that he could "make no sense" of
the verdict which found Miss Coplon innocent on the second count
of attempting to pass secret documents to Gubitchev but found the
Russian guilty of attempting to receive those documents.
"It indicates to me a terrific confusion," he said.

sanitorium after a long Illness.
Lehr was known to millions

ad-libbing In the studio and per
suaded him to become "Doktor
Lew." His putty-fat face, out

apropisms soon endeared him to
movie-goers.

Robinson Claims
May, Koehn Out
01 Senate Race
Two Upstate Men Also
Confirm Announcement
Fred Robinson, Medford cloth
ing store proprietor who is seek
ing the republican nomination
for United States senator, said
today that the two men who
have have been most prominent
ly mentioned as also entering
the primary race, have decided
not to do so.
Walter W. R. May, Oregon
City publisher, and George L.
Koehn, Portland industrialist,
both phoned Robinson last night,
he said, and told him that they
had conducted an informal poll
among friends, acquaintances,
and interested friends.
"Favorite Candidate"
They said, Robinson reported,
that Robinson seems to be the
favorite candidate to oppose Sen.
Wayne Morse in the primary
election. Both pledged him their
wholehearted support, Robin
son said.
The Medford candidate left
here today for Portland where
he will start his campaign "in
earnest." He expects to spend
several days upstate.
Political speculation in recent
weeks has been that May would
run In the primaries against
Morse. This guess had been
strengthened by the recent mer
ger of the Oregon City Enter
prise, May's newspaper, with the
Oregon City Banner-Courier, the
only competition.
Said Would Withdraw
Robinson raid several weeks
ago that he would withdraw
from, the contest if another can
didate, better known through
out the state, came forward. But
his announcement today appar
ently indicated that anti-Morse
forces have decided that Rob
inson is the best candidate they
have.
Portland, Ore.. Mar. 7 (U.R)
Walter W. R. May, editor-in-chief
of the Oregon City Enterprise-Courier,
announced today
that he will not run for the re
publican nomination- for U. S.
senator in opposition to Wayne
Morse.
"It will not be possible for
me to be a candidate for the
United States senate in the re
publican primary and start an ac
tive campaign soon enough to
draw fully the grave party issue
presented by Senator Morse's
course in office." May said. s
Cites Responsibilities
"This is because I have some
prior responsibilities I cannot set
aside. They are contractual and
in the nature of a trust. I am
deeply appreciative, of course,
for the united statewide support
offered me by my friends and
many others I do not know per
sonally who believed I would
win by giving the republican
voters the opportunity to express
themselves within the party,
which I believe they should
have."
Earlier, George L. Koehn.
Portland attorney, confirmed
that he also would withdraw
his candidacy against Morse on
the republican ticket In favor of
Fred Robinson, Medford.
Daylight Saving May
Be Council Subject
City councllmen may discuss
the matter of daylight saving
time at their regular meeting at
the city hall at 7:30 p.m. today.
Mayor Diamond Flynn reported
this morning.
He said that airline and radio
station representatives and a
number of businessmen advocat
ing daylight time have ap
proached him. The council a
month ago discussed the issue
but made no recommendation.
Central Point's request for
time extension to complete its
pumping station and connecting
line to the Medford-Camp White
trunk may be considered tonight,
according to the mayor. Febru
ary 2 was the original deadline
set.
Matters relative to park com

Churchill Demands
Postponement Of
Nationalization
Majority Of Voters
Said Against Pact
London. Mar. 7 U.R Win
ston Churchill demanded today
that Britain's shaky Labor gov
ernment postpone nationaliza
tion of iron and steel until at
least nine months after a new
general election.
The conservative opposition
leader told the new commons
that a majority of voters in the
February 23 general election
showed they were against the
steel nationalization act.
The steel act was passed by the
old parliament, to take effect
next January 1. The Conserva
tive and Liberal parties, pledged
to repeal of the act, won a major
ity of the popular vote in last
months' election, but the labor
government nevertheless captur
ed a slim majority of seven
seats in the new'house.
Prime Minister Clement R.
Attlce Indicated in commons last
night that the labor government
intended to let the act pass into
law on the scheduled date with
out further action of any kind.
Churchill reopened the attack
on the act today.
"The electors, by a majority,
have pronounced against it," he
said.
"Had we obtained a majority
(of the scats in commons), we
should have repealed the act."
Churchill said he would not
press for a vote on the Conser
vative motion regarding steel if
the labor government agreed to
postpone nationalization of iron
and steel until after the next
election.
If the motion should be put to
a vote, the labor government
would risk a defeat that might
result In dissolution of parlia
ment and an immediate new
election.
Churchill also proposed action
to remedy the election situation
that saw the labor government
get a majority of seats in the
new commons although it had
a minority of the popular vote.
He called for revision of the
election system and demanded
appointment of a special parlia
mentary committee to consider
the question.

Harvard Doctor
Tells 01 Autopsy
On Cancer Victim
Dr. Sander's Wife
In Brief Appearance
Manchester, N. H., Mar. 7
(U.R) A medical witness testi
fied at Dr. Hermann N. Sander's
mercy murder trial today that
40 cubic centimeters of air were
not enough to kill a person.
Dr. Richard Ford, pathologist
of Harvard university, went to
the witness stand after the doc
tor's loyal wife, in a brief, dra
matic appearance, told the all
male jury that her husband had
been worried and tired at the
time he injected air into the
veins of his cancer, patient,
Performed Autopsy
Dr. Ford performed an ex
haustive 10-hour autopsy on the
body of the patient, Mrs. Abbie
C. Borroto, 59, several weeks af
ter she died. He struck at the
heart of the state's murder case
by stating: "forty CC's Is not
enough to block the arterial sys
tem leading to the human lung."
Defense Attorney Robert E.
Booth asked him that if a medi
cal record stated a person died
easily after an air injection, if
that Indicated the air actually
killed her.
All or None
"I have an opinion," Dr. Ford
said.
"What is it?"
"I do not think so."
"It would indicate to me death
had resulted from other causes
than air," Dr. Ford said.
Dr. Ford said that "research
conducted on animals indicated
it would take 200 to 300 cubic
centimeters of air delivered with
in 25 seconds to kill a human.
Dr. Ford said "a fatal dose of
air is an all or none pheno
menon!." He explained that the
air either kills or doesn't kill
regardless of the condition of the
person who receives the Injec
tion. Forty cubic centimeters of air,
he said, would be the equival
ent of about an ounce and one
third, or "somewhat less than an
ordinary measuring glass for a
bartender."
Death From Air Rare
Dr. Ford said death from air
embolism is "quite rare."
He said he had examined the
case records of 80,000 autopsies
and that only 44 were recorded
aa due to air embolism,
"There were 12 proven cases
of the kind of air embolism. in
question," he said. "In all of
these cases there were large
quantities of air present."
Dr. Ford said 40 CC's of air '
would not displace much of the
blood in the heart, which has a
300-CC blood capacity. He said
40 CC'i would be shoved along
bit by bit to the lungs, "just
the same as you sometimes get
squirts of air in a kitchen fau
cet." House Vote Okays
Hawaii Statehood
Washington, Mar. 7 (U.R)
The house today approved state
hood for Hawaii. The roll call
vote was 261 to 110.
The bill now goes to the sen
